On this episode of the Mr Barton Maths Podcast I spoke to Mel Muldowney, better known as Mel from the JustMaths website and blog. I have been huge fan of Mel's work for a good few years now. Her blog posts are inspiring, engaging and provocative all in one, and the workshop she and her colleague Chris Seager gave at the Edexcel Conference in Warwick last summer was one of the best I have ever attended.

I asked Mel loads of things, including:

How does she plan her lessons, and how does this lead to successful behaviour management?

Can she describe a lesson that did not go to plan, and what did she learn from it - and her candid answer propels me to exorcise a few lesson demons as well!

How difficult did she find the move to a new school?

What are the most successful strategies that her and Seager have implemented in their maths department?

How are Mel's school reporting data on students in Years 7 to 10?

I am obviously completely biased, but I think this is a cracking listen. I was blown away by Mel's honestly, openness and passion for her job. I hope you agree.

Maths Transition by Keranjit Kaur

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Many primary school teachers will be considering how to prepare the Year 6 children for secondary school especially after the disruption over the last four terms. The NCETM have gathered ideas about preparing pupils for transition. These have been collated from the NCETM Tuesday evening #mathscpdchat Twitter discussions. Read more on the NCETM website What maths shall we do with Year 6 this term?

You may remember in the March Maths Update I mentioned that White Rose Maths were hoping to share projects for Year 6 which would revisit many of the skills and curriculum content covered in Key Stage 2 in real life contexts. Good news! The first one has just been released. It is called White Rose Bakery There are activities with answers, videos and guidance. On the Premium Resources section of the website there are editable teaching slides. The resources look brilliant.

The Mathematics Education Innovation have free 'Supporting Key Stage 2 to 3 Transition in Maths' webinars on different areas of maths including fractions, ratio and place value. The next webinar is about angles on Thursday 24 June from 4 - 4.45. Don't worry if you can't make it, the previous webinars are all available via the link. Primary KS2 to KS3 Transition

STEM Learning have shared a Year 6 to Year 7 transition project called The Polar Express! The aim is to enable children to develop a range of STEM skills. There is a suggested timetable and suggested activities. The project is designed to be taught by both primary and secondary staff. The Polar Express

Calculator Crunch 2021

Continuing with the theme of transition, MEI (Mathematics in Education and Industry) have built some resources to support transition too! We all know that in 2014 with the updated curriculum, the calculator paper went. The Calculator Crunch challenge has been created to encourage Year 6 children to use calculators and have fun.

https://mei.org.uk/?section=news&page=latest&newsid=785

The challenges will be released daily on Twitter, Facebook and the MEI website between Monday 21 st June and Thursday 1 st July.

If you've arrived at this page looking for activities that will help you to develop your mathematical thinking skills, you may be interested in our new Thinking Mathematically Collection.

Are you a student who likes to think about mathematical problems?

Why not test and develop your skills with this special selection of NRICH problems? They have been chosen because they only make use of simple mathematical concepts (the sort encountered as some point early in Stage 3): the emphasis is on the thinking rather than the knowledge.

Why not print out the table and tick off the problems you have solved? Will you be able to crack them all? Don't forget, if you get stuck you can look at the Hint or Solution at the top of each problem.

Happy solving!

--- KEY THINGS TO KNOW ---

Every aspect of the Maths White Board site is built around 3 things:

Differentiated challenge

Each topic area has been broken up into roughly 6 differentiated concepts to facilitate a greater level of support or challenge for a learner.

Beautifully scaffolded

Each topic has been structured in such a way to lead a user through a desirable teaching sequence or learning journey.

Endless questions

The site has been built with a topic bank at it's core not a question bank. The main aim is for you to never encounter the same question twice.

--- SHAPED BY RESEARCH ---

Below are 3 activities contained in the Maths White Board site born out of research:

Mini White Board activity

A powerful tool to support the use of mini whiteboards during classroom assessment. This part of the website produces a question for a specific topic and displays it full screen for clear viewing. Whilst using this tool, you have access to each of the differentiated levels (stars) and the answers are available for each question providing ease of use. You can generate new questions (but with different numbers) at any level with a simple click of a levelled button. No longer are you limited by the number of questions in an exercise to assess students whilst also being driven to master a specific skill. This tool is available under the main menu of the software and titled "Mini WB".

Recall White Board

Ideal for recapping on the full breadth of a specific skill (starters/revision). The site will produce a question at each of the differentiated levels and arrange them on screen for students to complete. You can then model the appropriate method before selecting the question to reveal the answer. If another question at the same level is required, select the refresh button to generate a new question but with different numbers. Endless opportunities to revise all aspects of a key topic skill over a sequence of lessons. This tool is available under the main menu of the software and titled "Recall WB".

Secure White Board

In order for techniques to be cemented into long term memory, sometimes we need to just give students a few similar questions for them to learn routines. The idea behind this aspect of the site is for students to practice so they learn not to make mistakes. The site will produce 6 questions at any chosen differentiated level and arrange them on screen. Not only will this tool help students to become familiar with techniques, it will also reduce the cost of printing unnecessary 1 time worksheets for classroom based activities. This tool is available under a selected and levelled MWB activity and titled "Secure WB".

Understanding how to use the resources.
​
Mixed Attainment Teaching can be hugely rewarding for teachers and pupils when done correctly, but it can take us out of our comfort zone.
I have concerns about sharing lesson resources without the opportunity to explain how they are used, which I would usually do in a workshop.
If at all possible please watch the zoom recording of my online workshop below (sorry for the first few minutes where we are setting up, it was our very first online workshop) or listen to my Mr Barton Podcast.

​Although these are labelled as lessons in the folders, they are not PowerPoint lessons.
​They are resources and activities which can be used in a lesson, saved to a PowerPoint.
They do not include slides of explanations as it is important that the teacher decides which explanations to provide to the whole class and which to provide to small groups or individuals.
​This does not mean that in a mixed attainment lesson there are no whole class teacher explanations; it means that the teacher decides which explanations to share based upon pupils' responses and contributions during the class discussion.
The PowerPoints include ideas to hopefully prompt the rich classroom discussions in which methods are shared by both the teacher and the pupils.​

Task Choice and Pupil Self Regulation
​
The ethos of these lessons is that pupils regulate their learning in reference to their Learning Journeys (which for the purposes of my school are called Progress Maps to ensure consistency with other subjects in the school.)
The use of Learning Journeys is fundamental to ensure that all pupils are supported and challenged.
Pupils complete a mini assessment at the start of a unit of work to identify their start point on the Learning Journey. (The mini assessment is the set of questions included in the Learning Journey PowerPoint.)
Pupils then choose their task each lesson based upon what they need to learn next in order to make progress. (It is very important that pupils do not all start on task one and work their way through the easier tasks in order to reach the harder tasks.)
The teacher should encourage pupils to select tasks for themselves and foster a classroom culture in which pupils seek challenge.
​It remains the teacher's responsibility to monitor task choice and redirect pupils who have selected inappropriately.
Pupils are assessed again at the end of each unit of work. We print our end of unit assessment tasks as A5 Booklets with a copy of the Learning Journey on the front cover. We can then compare the start of unit and end of unit Learning Journeys to track progress.

"No time to plan? Too busy to be creative? These books fulfil the dreams of busy teachers who need to teach core curriculum topics in ways which stimulate, excite and challenge all their students. Every idea in these books encourages mathematical thinking, deep understanding, and learning key mathematical ideas. Colin Foster has collected a wide range of tried-and-tested tasks and contexts to teach core curriculum topics and organised them to be accessible for quick planning. Indispensable!"

Simply fabulous

Love everything about the podcasts and I have learned so much. The presenter's are so energetic and positive. Make some more please.

Perfect for multitasking

I'm a new mature maths student who's been desperately looking for audio material to soak up while working. This provides me with tons of concise and interesting conversation to make me feel like I'm learning without having to pick up a pen and pad.

Hope it continues for a long time. Thank you!
